Dragon Age Origins - PC Gameplay - Played on a Q9550 and ATI Radeon HD 3870

[Traxxex8]

I have a HP laptop with the following configuration:

AMD X2 Dual core (2.00GHz) and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3200, 150 GB HDD

Do you think it's gonna work?

[nidhal25]

can u ride a horse ?

[ThePsychoticScyth396]

*sigh* my dis is in exellent shape and you this game wont install for me. i miss playing T_T.

[LadyAneh]

I sucked at this game very, very badly. so embarrassing! I'm usually pretty good at rpgs.

[toutagamon]

@LadyAneh

Yeah me too. I have never come to lose so often in RPGs.

[yurishan1994]

do you think nvida 9600gt will get a similar performance to this card ?

[toutagamon]

@yurishan1994

Yes. Actually better. Don't forget that this is a fraps recorded video which brings a huge performance hit +a frame cap.

[ArchHamza]

i dono , the videos that am seeing here are not selling me the game.

i have plaid lots of RPG and i especially liked diablo and MASSEFFECT but i dono this one seems too slow for my taste

[swaggerlikacripple]

i gues itz nt tht bad

[BlowFusion]

I Cant See My Mouse When I Play This Game On Pc, Could Some1 Help Me?

[CyrusLeaks]

fuck i want your pc

[XxmikelETFxX]

game looks good...i might buy it...

[LXQUICKJUSTICE]

terrible graphics, terrible animations, terrible gameplay. Wow, yeah, a winner. o_0

I Don't Care if it has 300009999999 hours of dialogue and story. It still SUCKS.

[Lasagnaboy1]

@LXQUICKJUSTICE I quite enjoyed this game. I think the graphics and animations are quite good. I still play it to this day.

[ngforsgren]

This is a good game without a doubt. But why does it not appeal to me, I don't know I think World of Warcraft ruined these type of games for me, Fallout barely appeals to me too, as well as Mass Effect.

[Shadovv117]

@ngforsgren u cant blame wow for that lmao

[druidofluhn]

It is so much like Neverwinter Nights. I noticed it during the fighting and when the camera zoomed out. The only difference in this video is the plot, the graphics and the people/weapons/attacks.

[southboy99]

@druidofluhn I said the same thing. This reminds me too much of Neverwinter Nights.

[AnarchySpawn13]

i hate the fail fighting in games like this. just swing away and hope they miss some. people should recoil when they get hit (including yourself), it shouldnt give you enough health to withstand 500 hits to the head with a fucking axe, and you should be able to shield and dodge and all that shit.

[bob2000and10]

what is the appeal of this game? I had it for ,like 2 days, I played it for like 5 minuets and I was like wow, this is gay. and traded it into EB that same day, I lost money but this game is so crap

[toutagamon]

@bob2000and10

This is an RPG game, for....RPG fans. If you are an RPG fan you'd love it.

[bob2000and10]

@toutagamon I love the Tomb Raider series (probably the only one on the planet who still buys them) but I cant come to terms with the appeal of this game, great if others like it, but its lost on me

[toutagamon]

@bob2000and10

Tomb Raider has nothing to do with Dragon Age mate. You are comparing two completely different genres here.

[bob2000and10]

@toutagamon both 3rd person RPG, comparing technicality's, not story.

[Loryuo]

@bob2000and10 tomb raider isn't a rpg

[gavinjoaquinolivas]

@toutagamon LOL wtf tomb raider and dragon age...

[southboy99]

@toutagamon I'm an RPG fan and hated it.

[oxytrebor]

@southboy99 i'm with you.for some reason this game didn't 'do it' for me.i played about a quarter of it and uninstalled it from my PC.i can see why some people like it.i mean it's well done etc , but it bored the hell outta me.funny cuz i loved ME2 from the same people...

[southboy99]

@oxytrebor I don't think the game sucks. I think the story line is well written and can be fun at times. But when someone came on here and said it was a thinking mans game I had to laugh. It's not like Chess, or a RTS where y our playing another human player.

[Loryuo]

@southboy99 well this is more western fantasy rpg. maybe you prefer anime inspired rpgs?

[danilovic97]

@bob2000and10 Wtf are you talking about? You judge games by playing them 5 minutes??? Omg, first i didn't like witcher, but i kept playing it and after first chapter i started to like game, and later i really liked that game. (anyway i liked this game first time i started to play it)

[willcse]

@bob2000and10 You cant play a game 5 minutes and say its lika crap! you gotta play more dude :)

[hackman71]

@bob2000and10 i think its gay you only gave it 5 mins... talk about not giving something a chance

[MCfleghm]

@bob2000and10 I'm sorry if this game requires you to have a brain. But honestly don't come to this video and bitch about the game. It's a fun game.

[MCfleghm]

@bob2000and10 I'm sorry if this game requires you to have a brain. But honestly don't come to this video and bitch about the game. It's a fun game. And oh yeah, don't use gay as a derogatory term.

[bob2000and10]

@MCfleghm wow your a retard, I use the term "gay" however I fucking like. You can't tell me what to do you gay piece of shit.

Why the fuck should I care what advice some loser such as yourself is giving me about a comment made 6 MONTHS ago, 6 MONTHS ago that means I wrote that 6 MONTHS ago for people who are a bit slow and seem to overlook things like that

[MCfleghm]

@bob2000and10 It doesn't matter when you made the comment... Chances are you still have the same opinion. And you have this illusion in your mind that when you don't like something, it's alright to call it " gay "

[bob2000and10]

@MCfleghm I'm not a queer basher, but if actual gays (oh which I assume you are one or know someone who is) have a bitch about me calling a game gay then your the most pathetic non religious group on the planet. What I said wasn't illegal so I'll say whatever the fuck I want if it offends you then thats your problem.

[MCfleghm]

@bob2000and10 I don't really have much to say to you any more... Except that you are a terrible, terrible person.

[bob2000and10]

@MCfleghm you have no backing to what your saying so you come out with a generic insult, well done mate

[MCfleghm]

@bob2000and10 yeah... There usually better, I'm very tired.

[buddysmithburg]

looks kinda slow paced in comparison to mass effect(2)

[CheatForPC]

Excellent. I honestly think Dragon Age Origins should be nominated the best game of the year.

Let me teach you how to hack your stats (Attributes, Skills, Spells) so they're all maxed out to Level 4 since the very beginning: watch?v=zopos1B6Elc

[LBGreenthumb]

nice setup, im runnin an intel e8500 core 2 duo (stock) and an ati 4830 (factory oc) i play with max settings (no aa tho) at 1080p and get 40fps. im gonna buy an 4890 soon :)

[toutagamon]

@LBGreenthumb

Nuh it wasn't so nice really.

I was just doing some testing on a friend's 3870! :P

[Howardldean]

@LBGreenthumb I'd pick up a 5770, then pick up another in a bit. They scale around 80% and have dx 11! Your choice either way.

[LBGreenthumb]

@Howardldean my pc only has one pci-e slot, but I did end up getting a 5770 (overclocked edition) it arrives tomorrow, lol. it shold be a good performance boost over my 4830.

[Solitude075]

Is this an online game?

[THExROBONATOR]

what program do you use to record?? ?

[toutagamon]

Fraps mate!

[THExROBONATOR]

newest version?????

[Cache006]

nice speed and graphics and you recorded too(nice card)

[merolleiro]

q9550 + 3870  quite unbalanced :O

[toutagamon]

Yes yes. This is not a standard setup. I was just doing some testing until my 5850s arrive. I had just sold my 4870X2.

[DeMitreN]

i'm actually playing with a 512MB ATI Radeon HD 4350 (320-0839). If i play with your video settings, the fps goes too low, i have to turn of antialaising and put graphic on medium.

what do you suggest me to do to improve it?

[toutagamon]

The 4350 has 80shaders, 4 tmus, 4ROPS and DDR2 RAM while the 3870 has 320shaders, 16TMUS, 16ROPS and GDDR4 memory.

Isn't it obvious that it is a much stronger card? Therefore you should upgrade your card. Go for a 4670 or better yet a 5670.

[LBGreenthumb]

@DeMitreN buy a ati 4850 if your on a budget, you can get one for $100 on newegg, and it will run any game with good fps at high settings

[IraqiDude321]

@DeMitreN hey I have the same video card as you can you tell me if you or a friend has had an issue were it said you needed a phsyx driver or something when you tried to install it?

[ovariesniper]

wow such a rip-off from winter knights series....

[toutagamon]

It is so easy for people to call something rip off of another game. Since you are a RPG fan, you should appreciate the effort and the result, no matter if it is a rip off of another game. This game is one of the most decent programming examples I have seen and a very well thought game overall.

Certainly much much more than just a rip off! ;)

[ovariesniper]

Okay i understand where your coming from, it might be a well rounded game with AMAZING programing BUT you gotta agree that we the people who like playing games like playing new things rather than games that are too similar in style.

[toutagamon]

Yes originality is important. But come on this industry makes games for like 20 years now. How many original ideas can they come up per year?

I mean you know that basically in all RPGs, it's like, hack, slash, potion, experience, level up, new items/weapons and the lot. How else can they do it?

All I am saying is that "rip off" is a harsh word for this game.;)

Cheers.

[Alexz1909]

i just wanna say : good comp. :)......but what program do you use to record??

[Cecilink60]

@ovariesniper Yeah, Bioware sure ripped off Bioware!

[GreenGhost5]

I've still yet to be able to build a PC. Everytime I get a good bit of money saved up something goes wrong. I really want to be able to play this game via PC. For now I have to settle for the PS3 version.

[oxytrebor]

@GreenGhost5 don't know what budget you're working with but you don't need an expensive rig to play DAO.my PC is well over 3 years old (paid around $750 for it) and i still can get between 30-48 FPS....

[kyeroni]

Another game just like this is Crane simulator 2009 great game almost identical

[cnsoup97]

i am looking for a new game on pc to get...i have this for xbox and think its gr8...can any1 recomend a game that is very similar to this....same play style...pick a race and a class, click to attack...no actual button fighting...good amount of quests, ect.?

[duanemperor]

@cnsoup97 try Guild Wars, you can get the Trilogy on STeam for $40

[duanemperor]

@cnsoup97 and I think there is a free trial too

[Feder147]

3870 is really good

[doronknowsbest3]

i have q6600 4gb 275gtx .. can i get 60 fps?lower/higher

[0ttomaani]

yes you can get 60fps

[vjehshta]

i have an excellent PC on monday and im going to buy this game first!

[doronknowsbest3]

specs?

[vjehshta]

@doronknowsbest3 : \InterlR CoreTM i5 CPU 750 @2.67GHz 2.79GHz 4.99 GB ram etc

[doronknowsbest3]

awesome pc... the i5 series are really great

[vjehshta]

@doronknowsbest3 : omg but where i live there are the CD-s false and i buyed it for 2 euros when i install it i (copy paste) the crack but it says .Please insert the Dragon age disk!

[vjehshta]

@doronknowsbest3 yes:) but now i have some problems they ca nbe seen in my channel at my video my pc is makign a terrible noise and i have screen tearing and now i thin k its the power suplly i have moved from europe to panama and now the electricity is different and when i first turned my pc on it made a terrible noise like never before then after 3 days i opened it again and after 10 min of use it started making crappy weird noises

[oxytrebor]

@vjehshta dude why did you leave Europe to live in that hot ,nasty , bug-infested ,3rd world country?

[vjehshta]

@oxytrebor Bcoz of my dad's work.

And yes, you are right this place is the worst place I have ever been

20% of the ppl know english. Its the most hottest place in the world, and some bugs do appear in my house

FU PANAMA :D:P

[synysterr1989]

my comp is struggling to run this, i have a 8800 Nvidia GTS but it might be the processor(intel core duo 1.8 ghz)

[Feder147]

overclock it, if your on a desktop you shouldnt have any trouble hitting 3.0ghz or 2.8. however, if you have a gateway fx laptop you are going to have to switch the cpu for a better one. I hope you have a pc and not the laptop as the processor for laptop is 300 bucks.

[Redztheman]

Maybe you could help me with a problem I am having with this game. As soon as I installed it and started playing, I found that the movie cutscenes were very glitchy and jumped around everywhere. My player movements are very sporatic and just not smooth at all. My computer isn't crap, I am thinking maybe I should just try reparing the game? Or is there a patch out there that fixes the chopyness?

[Feder147]

what r your specs? this game is demanding

[MonsieurCrazyMerlin]

Sounds like you have too many background processes going on

[PwnageHawk]

@Redztheman

DirectX up to date?

[synysterr1989]

yes i unfortunately have the fx laptop and realize i can cannot OC it. A friend coerced me into buying the laptop as it was available for reasonably cheap but im starting to have regrets, don't have the money right now for a new processor but we will see. thx for the reply.

[Feder147]

@synysterr1989 its a good laptop, but the processor really brings it down. Did you buy it at ebay? alot of the fx laptops at ebay are pretty old, if it was the fx with the p8400 than youd be good. What you CAN do is buy an x9000 processor and that would set u for future proof, or x7900. Look it up on ebay

[synysterr1989]

right yes i asked a friend and told him my model(P6860 FX) he reccomended a T9300 but i did look some more up and that x7900 is faster and a little cheaper from what I have seen.

[MyazXtr3me]

its your processor. its recommended is a 2.4 intel core 2 duo.

[KamaMatt]

I got a gaming computer so im totally ready for this game :D

[nahuelflash]

I Can play it whit a n9400gt ?

It going to work ?

[onkelruth]

okay, tnx...

i was abotto go buy the game u know, but now i wait to i get my new pc

[toutagamon]

Yes, better play it on your new PC. You will enjoy it more! ;)

[onkelruth]

and my prossesors are

ADM Torion(tm) x2 dual-core mobile RM-70

i got two of that prossesor

[onkelruth]

ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics

ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 Hybrid X2

thats what i got....

you think they can run the game

[toutagamon]

I don't think so.

[McFarlanefan101]

Do you have any problems? with your Dragon age? I have an ATI radeon 4870 and sometimes every 2 mins it just says Send error report and crap. I think i need new drivers but they havent came out yet. what do you think?

[toutagamon]

No I don't have any problems!

Have you installed the 1.01 patch?

[GameSiphon]

If you get your hands on this game sometime yourself, could you upload a video showing the FPS with the 5850 perhaps?

[toutagamon]

Sure!

[MadcapMan]

nvm, just saw. how the hell do you play with 4xaa and get those fps?

[toutagamon]

The resolution I record on, is pretty low, so even the lowly 3870 can cope with that. No point going for a higher res anyway, since it the framerate will be far worse and Youtube does not allow higher than 1280X720 resolution anyway!

[MadcapMan]

What setting are u playing on?

[winglessangel1004]

Wow Nice vid !!

Hmm I have Quad Core Q9400, I'd wonder if this is enough ...

Yours is higher than mine so, I would get lower fps ... hmm ... Can't wait till I try out :P lol

[toutagamon]

You will be fine, don't worry! ;)

[winglessangel1004]

Thanx !! :D

[toutagamon]

I mean if your graphics card is decent! :)

[winglessangel1004]

ohh...my bad, hmm I think it will be ok ... I hope. its Xfx 9800GT, hmm .... I did see some other 9800GT video but didn't state what settings it was on. Oh well, I think it will run at some graphics :P

[Gutsa17]

Will I be able to run this game on medium settings in 1680x1050 with this rig?

Windows 7 Professional (32 bit)

2GB DDR RAM

ATI Radeon HD4550 512MB

AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ 2GHz (Dual Core)

Thanks in advance for a response!

[toutagamon]

I think you will have to lower your resolution.

[GameSiphon]

Hey, a friend of mine told me he was running this game at a constant 60-100 FPS with a 8800GTX and a 2.4 GHz dual-core with everything on max 8x AA 1680x1050. Do you think he's lying? o.O

[toutagamon]

If he is a friend of yours, go to his home to see it yourself and if he is, kick his butt! :P

[GameSiphon]

He lives in denmark... Would take far too long :P

[bogellenong]

nice, i have good change to get maxed out in this game, i have quad core too but with 9800gtx+ 4gig ram

[Morgensteinnn]

This is pissing me off it released but not on steam...Fail

[midbluegreen]

reminds me of never winter

[sabrinours]

and me morrowind(oblivion)

[prisonson]

if this game is even better than oblivion and neverwinter nights 1 ....thats gonna write gaming history

cant wait to play it tommorow

[Murgatangutz]

this game may be batter than oblivion in action aspect , but there is no game batter in roleplay aspect than TES series.

[GODSPEEDseven]

I mean no disrespect for TES series, because they are good... but jeez, no better role play than TES? You must never have played Baldur's Gate 2 !! I loved Oblivion, don't get me wrong, but oblivon lacks the essentials that make a role-playing so 'grand'... like a deep involving mature story with characters that interact with one another, wether it be sarcasm to flirting or from falling in love to wanting to kill the other party member! You care for the caracters & they add to the story! ;)

[LandsharK94]

The Dark Brotherhood quest line was pretty cool. Other than that, you're right.

[GODSPEEDseven]

My pleasure really.. hehe... (to be right that is) ;)

[worrior00020]

bgike kiolas?

[toutagamon]

To tell you the truth I didn't check.

Didn't have much time. It was not my game so I had to give it away in 15 minutes lol.

[AMDGuy64]

Its good to know you don't need some ridiculously expensive rig to run this game smooth. My buddy is so card is 8800GT 1GB will burn. lol. I can't wait for 10AM tomorrow!!!! Thanks a lot for the vid. I've been watching them for Hours, I'm so excited for this title it is everything I've wanted in a game from the setting, developer, genre, platform...perfect!!!

[toutagamon]

I'm glad you liked it! :)

[AMDGuy64]

oops meant "is so scared" lol not card! 2 hours and 50 mins until i get my copy!!!!

[PS3andPCgamereviews]

Oh, this looks like "the witcher" just a little bit

[toutagamon]

Yeah a little bit.

Although the friend that brought it over, was in a hurry and the little bitch wouldn't let me proceed a lit further to see the outdoors environment.

[PS3andPCgamereviews]

I want this game like now. lol keep up the vid's bro!

[leovrf]

Reminds me Neverwinter Nights

[kyle7286]

Its like neverwinter knights, also like baulders gate. Its a perfect blend, and the controls are 100000x better. Everything is fluid.. unlike NWN2

[deepakm]

Do you actually fight.. or does the character fight by itself?

[GrimyGhost]

basic attacks are auto, but you choose special attacks and spells, same as the good old prgs like baldur's gate and acranum

[ProcyonAlpha]

Nice frame rate for a 3870!

[prisonson]

3870 is-was a powerful card

[toutagamon]

True. Heck, I can play The force Unleashed at 1920X1080 at a solid 30fps. If it weren't for the cap, maybe it could do a bit more!

[kyle7286]

So getting this game.

[toutagamon]

If I didn't have Torchlight right now, I would seriously consider it. Maybe later!
